Annual Association Board Meeting
Open to all residents!
November 10, 2026; 7:00 pm.
Century 21 Bradley Realty, Inc.; 2928 E. Dupont Road.
Please plan to attend and be involved in our wonderful neighborhood! As always, we will welcome any neighbors wanting to be a part of our association board.
PARKING:
Please be courteous of your neighbors as well as aware of the flow of traffic when parking on the street.
Vehicles should always be parked on the same side of the street and facing the direction as they would drive.
No vehicle shall be parked within 30 feet upon the approach to any stop sign.
There should never be any parking in front of, or within 15 feet in either direction of a fire hydrant. The fire department has the right to physically move your vehicle from blocking the hydrant in an emergency situation. They also could break your windows to pass fire hoses through. These are extreme situations, but are possible.
Do not block access to other resident's driveways or restrict mailbox access.
PONDS:
No swimming or skating in winter is permissable on any of our ponds.
RESIDENTS
The ponds are private property of our association. Residents and their guests are more than welcome to fish our ponds. All fish caught must be released back into the pond. Please try to access the ponds at the common ground access points. A couple ponds have sidewalks leading down towards them. Do not go through resident's private property to access the ponds unless you have been given explicit permission from each resident you wish to pass through their yard.
Please pick up after yourself. Fishing lures, hooks, fishing lines, refuse, etc. not only creates messes for others to clean up; but also creates safety hazards and potential damage/injury.
NONRESIDENTS
Our ponds are not open to public for fishing. If someone sees nonresidents fishing, it is urged that you call the non-emergency sheriff number (449-3000) to report; they will come out.
Fireworks
Fireworks may be discharged only between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. any day except on Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and New Years Eve when the times are 9:00 a.m. to midnight. It is important to check with local officials, as local ordinances may restrict the use of fireworks. (IN.gov)
Please let other neighbors know via our Facebook group should you plan to have a fireworks show. There are quite a few around the 4th of July that we know some neighbors really love to sit out and watch. It is also a courtesy for neighbors that have pets, or themselves, that might be sensitive to the sounds or flashes.

Think Neighborhood Safety!
Drive slowly! Unfortunately, speed limits are not posted in our neighborhood but the law limits the speed to 25mph.
Always be aware of suspicious activities. As a small community, we take comfort in the fact that we all watch out for each other. Report or make known any suspicious activities to our email address or to other neighbors via our Facebook group.
Pay attention to any unexpected safety hazards that may arise.
